Soooooo far, I've never spent more than $25 on an individual pony (excluding shipping). My problem is buying lots in one go though, so it adds up. I think the most I spent at once was around $160, hand-picking ponies from a private collection, and I got some real goodies too  ;)

Definitely the box of wave 1 blind bags, I bought them months ago when a few JC Penney's had them, and they were $3.99 each  :cry:


Had I known they would be in stores now I wouldn't have bought them back then, but I do love them so! Still money well spent :)

For the most part, my G1s have come from thrift stores. But I DID pay $20 for a Dangles. I had one as a kid and I decided "Ok. I'll spend more than usual to get a really nice one." Not mint, but nice enough for me. According to her description, she had a bit of frizziness in the tail but was otherwise more or less fine. She arrives and has a fair amount tail rust :/ I also figured she'd be cleaner than she was. I mentioned this to the seller and recieved a small refund.

I gave her a good cleaning (the dirt camoflaged a purple stain O_o) and de-frizzed her hair. She's awsome now.

I love her to death so I don't regret a penny of it.  I'd probably never spend that much on a pony again though - I never have that much pony spending money these days anyway! :P

Mine is still in the works too.  I'm sending my final payment to GustyFox for Brazil Truly soon.
Nirvana grails:  Reverse Gusty (upgrade), Peru Windy and Moonstone (upgrade), Brazil TAF upgrades, Argie Powder w/ white hair (upgrade), French Windy and Moondancer (upgrades), Spain TAF's, TE's, and piggies.  These are my biggest wants, but I'm looking for tons more nirvanas, especially Greeks, Brazilians, and Peruvians.  Feel free to PM me for sales or trades.  But please note that I'm also fairly picky.

I bought  a huuuuuge lot of ponies for about 60 bucks |D

It was about 50 ponies of various generations with a whole bunch of accessories, along with around 40 fakies~

Mine was Baby Blue Ribbon's game board with the ribbon. It cost me an entire paycheck from my first job but it was so worth it! It's so beautiful!

My Rapunzel ~450 on her.

Surprisingly, my PE went for way less than I thought it would - given that it's really just missing the box and 1 cup. ~125 (WITH shipping).

Greek Moonstone...

And my Mexican playsets (actually, only the Sweet Shoppe that included alt. Peppermint Crunch, and now the Perfume Palace =3) =X




And like 3 years ago I bought a lot of more than 100 ponies...  I still can't say how much it cost me =P




Ponies that cost a lot, but not because of them?
